The Twilight Zone: Two (1961)
Season 3, Episode 1
6/10
A Young Charles Bronson?!
31 December 2019
Warning: Spoilers
"Two" tells a little story in a post-apocalypse world full of scavengers and survivors. I got a real "Fallout" video game franchise from this one. There are only two characters here, members of warring armies with beefs that have outlasted society. One is tired of fighting, the other still hesitant to disarm. Our two characters are a male and a female that, over the course of the episode, eventually fall in love.

This really seemed like a waste of Charles Bronson's talents. I love Bronson and he doesn't really get the chance to shine here. With a better TZ script, he could have turned an average episode into a classic. I like a quiet episode as much as the next guy, but this one really didn't have any point. It's supposed to be a cutesy little romance episode but it doesn't hold up. If anything I guess we can embrace the moral that two warring sides can learn to love one another. That's a nice thought...
